Made it Monday

I am very excited to be linking with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics for her super inspiring linky.

Remember I am still in school (14 more days!) so keep your expectations reasonable : )

I made a gumball machine. My daughter came home from a crafting birthday party with one last year and as soon as I saw it I knew I wanted to make one. This year I bought Bubble Gum Trouble from Krista Wallden and used it to make a little probability unit. I made the gumball machine to use in my lessons. I hope to use it next year as a class incentive tool - fill up the gumball machine earn a prize.

It goes with this little unit I made.

I made these for my daughters. Okay so I printed them and framed them. I got the print from the super talented Megan @ I Teach, What's Your Superpower. I love the message and I am working very hard to try and ensure that my girls have a positive self-image, a strong sense of self and confidence.

To try and help with that I put this word art up in the bathroom so they could read the message every day. Not great picture quality - the walls are actually blue! It says "Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful" and it has a little bling in the middle of the flower - it came with more but I went easy on the bling, my husband uses the washroom too!

Last but not least I made these numbers for my Made it Monday posts using a frame from the aforementioned talented Megan. I made three numbers to keep me motivated but I just ran out of time this week! Hopefully next time number three will be a little better!
